Guest Reviews
- Joanna (10/5): - First of all, Andrea and Samuel thank you very much for your hospitality and your kindness. We saw many animals in the garden every day: sloth, monkeys, agouti, and many birds. It was like the private national park:)The accomodations are comfortable, spacious, and have a well-equipped kitchen. If we ever return to Cahuita, we will definitely return to the same place. n/a
- Tati (10/5): - Me encantó el silencio que hay en el lugar y la naturaleza, la playa está a minutos de las cabinas y que permitan traer mascotas definitivamente es un plus. La atención fue espectacular, sin duda volveremos.
- Antonio (8/5): -
- Griffith (10/5): Vacaciones de Semana Santa - La atención fue increíble, nos recibieron demasiado bonito con un refresco natural parq toda la familia, las instalaciones increíblemente bonitas. Literalmente es un lugar para descansar rodeado de naturaleza Nada
- Anna (10/5): Excelente lugar - Un lugar muy limpio, acogedor y con todo lo necesario para pasarla bien. Andrea super linda persona, atenta y amable. Mi segunda vez visitando el lugar y sin duda volveré. Quizás cambiar los colchones de las camas para más confort
- Josef (9/5): Sehr freundliche Beziehung mit den Gastgebern - Meine Betreuung in Cabinas Álgebra war hervorragend. Alle meine Fragen und Bitten wurden von Andrea & Samuel sehr freundlich und freundschaftlich beantwortet und gelöst.
Das Frühstück war sehr reichhaltig und schmeckte sehr gut. In meinem Zimmer hatte ich viel Platz und ich fühlte mich sehr dort sehr wohl. Cabinas Álgebra bieten eine sehr gutes Preis/Leistungs Verhältnis. Ich würde diese Unterkunft allen empfehlen. Vielen Dank für die Gastfreundschaft von Andrea & Samuel
- Moni (10/5): -
- 60665654baab7021b4df828bde6e701b (10/5): Excellent séjour - Nous avons adoré notre séjour ici !! Nous avons eu un super accueil avec toutes les informations nécessaires sur les activités à faire. Notre cabane était grande, propre et très confortable (corde à linge dehors très appréciable !) ; la cuisine bien équipée, bref nous recommandons les yeux fermés ! Rien
- ba8446b89f0271a72f13550593302020 (10/5): - La gentillesse d'Andrea et de Samuel. Samuel nous a montré un paresseux qui venait de s'installer dans un arbre du jardin.
Ils nous ont offert un délicieux jus de bienvenue. Les repas et le petit déjeuner étaient très bons.
- 8f16edcc108271072668a7ed7993bf53 (8/5): -
- david (8/5): Bungalow senzill i equipat. - Bungalow senzill pero ampli i equipat una mica allunyat del centre del poble pero en zona tranquila i aprop de platja i en plena natura. Amfitrió molt amable, al arribar ens va fer una explicació amb molt detall de la zona.
- Gabriele (10/5): - Ein unglaublicher toller Ort, um zu verweilen. Die Herzlichkeit und Gastfreundlichkeit von Andrea und ihrem Sohn, Samuel, sind umwerfend. Wir haben uns von der ersten Minute an wohl und zu Hause gefühlt.
Die Unterkunft ist mit viel Grün umgeben und liegt nicht weit vom karibischen Meer.
Außerdem sind die Werte, die von Andrea und Samuel im Umgang mit Menschen und der Natur vertreten, um u.a. das Land nachhaltig zu erhalten, wunderbar!
Noch ein Wort zu Samuel: Er beeindruckt mit seiner positiven, umwerfenden Art, mit Lebensfreude und dem Engagement für den Schildkrötenschutz. Weiter so.
Euch beiden viel Erfolg weiterhin und alles Gute.
Vielen Dank!!!!
Perfekt.
- Stanislava (10/5): - Apartmány jsou v krásné zahradě, mají terasu s posezením a hamakou. Velice milý a ochotný personál, výborná snídaně. V restauraci se dal i naobědvat nebo navečeřet a vaří výborně. Cca 100 m se nachází dlouhá pláž.
- Alex cj (9/5): - La naturaleza del lugar Un poquito lejos de la playa
- Méndez (10/5): - Excelente trato, el lugar muy tranquilo y muy ordenado todo.
- Morten (10/5): A quite paradise on earth - A quite paradise on earth. Why go to the nationalpark when you can sit in the garden and see everything from sloths to monkeys? The staff are the kindest souls you will ever meet.
My stay at Cabinas Algebra was the highlight of my trip in Costa Rica. Nothing:
- Raffaella (9/5): - la gentilezza e ospitalità dei proprietari
- Ruiz (10/5): Entorno natural para desconectarse - Un lugar súper tranquilo rodeado de naturaleza
- Anne (10/5): - L’emplacement dans la forêt près de la Playa Grande, le jardin avec ses fleurs, ses écureuils, ses agoutis et ses oiseaux. Sa terrasse au calme et surtout l’accueil de Samuel et de sa maman , les hôtes qui tiennent un restaurant ouvert sur la nature et fleuri où l’on se régale. Mais il y avait bien sûr tout pour cuisiner soi-même dans notre cabina bien colorée.
- Esteban Javier (10/5): Especial atención - El trato de Andrea y Samuel fue muy especial, no brindaron una excelente recepción y anuencia para lo que necesitaramos en nuestra estadía.
- Karla (10/5): - Los anfitriones un amor de personas Andrea & Samuel, muy atentos todo el tiempo, aparte de toda la naturaleza que hay en el lugar
- Jan (9/5): Mysigt ställe. - Supertrevlig personal, mycket god frukost och en bra restaurang. Nära till närmaste strand. Lugnt läge. Uteplats med hängmatta. Man fick gå en bit för att komma in till stan.
- roy (10/5): El paraiso en la tierra - Instalaciones bellas y comodas sobre todo el excelente trato de Samuel y Andrea y la cercania a la playa Todo estuvo maravilloso
- Georg (10/5): - Alles Perfekt. Alles was man sich wünscht. Es ist nichts zu beanstanden
- Claudia (10/5): Tranquilo y acogedor - Samuel y Andrea son super amables y muy buenos anfitriones! Samuel te da muy buena información nada más llegar y Andrea nos trató genial. No comimos en el restaurante pero todo tenía muy buena pinta. Lo recomiendo 10/10
- Alessandra (10/5): Place of peace & happiness - I’d like to take a moment to talk about this place. It is truly exceptional, and we absolutely loved our stay there with our daughter. The garden is a gem, beautifully cared for, and full of wildlife, including sloths and howler monkeys. Samuel told us that he helped build a bridge to allow them to move around freely. The whole place gives a deep sense of peace, and we all slept incredibly well.
Just a few minutes away, there is a beautiful, unspoiled beach. The hosts are incredibly friendly and genuinely curious people, and you can really feel how they embrace the pura vida lifestyle. We felt very welcome from the start. They shared the story behind the name and the place and gave us plenty of useful tips for getting around.
We loved Cahuita, and staying at Cabina Algebra made the experience even more special for our family. Nothing
- roy (10/5): Maravilloso lugar - Todo! El lugar es precioso, la habitación estaba muy limpia y ordenada, la cocina con todo lo necesario y muy limpio. Además, la atención de Andrea y Samuel es destacable, inmediato sabíamos que queriamos volver a este lugar. Nos sentimos en medio de la naturaleza, con el mar a unos pasod, total seguridad, tranquilidad y una atención de lujo. Hasta pedimos unas papas fritas que estaban deliciosas Todo estuvo increible
- karine (10/5): -
- Greivin Pérez (9/5): Playa, excelente atención y bello lugar a un precio genial! - La atención de Samuel y su mamá han sido de las mejores que me han brindado en los lugares que me he hospedado con Booking.com. Te sientes como en casa y de la familia No haberme quedado más tiempo 😅😎
- Georg (10/5): - Hübsche kleine Wohneinheiten an der karibischen Küste, sehr günstig, mit unglaublich warmherzigen Gastgebern Andrea und ihrem Sohn Samuel, die hilfreiche Tipps zur Programmgestaltung geben und alle Fragen ausführlich beantworten. Uns wurde der Nationalpark Cahuita empfohlen, den wir eigentlich nicht auf dem Programm hatten, weil wir vorher schon so viele Nationalpaks in Costa Rica besucht haben. Wir gingen doch hin, weil dort auch ein Strand integriert ist - und alles kostenlos ist. Diese Erfahrung wurde zum Höhepunkt unserer Zeit in diesem wunderschönen Land. Wir haben da einige Affenfamilien gesehen, die ganz nah kommen, Waschbären mit ihren Kleinen beobachtet, mitten im Wald, auf einem Kokosbaum und beim "Stehlen" unserer Gegenstände :-). Ein Krokodil zeigte sich, Panzerkrebse, ein Riesenleguan, Faultiere - schlafend und auch fressend, einige Vogelarten. Einfach unvergesslich! Unsere vier Kinder waren in einer eigenen Wohneinheit mit 4 Betten mit Küche, bei der kein Frühstück inklusive ist - sie haben trotzdem ein Frühstück erhalten und das kostenlos. Wirklich großartig! - und das Lob der Gastgeber und ihrer Kochkünste kein bisschen übertrieben, eine klare Empfehlung, es einfach zu probieren. Sie haben uns angeboten, dass die von unserer Tochter vergesse kleine Tasche zu ihnen geschickt wird und sie diese einem der deutschen Gäste nach Deutschland mitgeben. Gastfreundschaft und Herzlichkeit einfach enorm! Auch der Garten ist schön angelegt. Ganz klar - uneingeschränkte Empfehlung, ein toller Ort, wir sind rundum zufrieden - so schade, dass wir nicht länger bleiben konnten. Sollten wir mal in Costa Rica sein, gehört dieser Ort bei uns auf jedem Fall zu einem MUSS. Danke!!
- michelle (10/5): I loved it. - Excellent location by a lovely secluded beach. Break fast ahhmazing. Owners are fabulous! Highly recommend
- Lucie (10/5): - We loved the location.(off the noisy tourist area), but about 100m from Playa Grande, we loved the setting: in a wonderful garden with wild animals (we saw a sloth and howler monkeys)! The owners (Andrea and Samuel) were wonderful hosts, very friendly, helpful and warm-hearted, passionate about neture. The food in the restaurant was delicious and nicely presented. We wish we could go back some day 😊 Thank you. Pura vida! Lucie and Zoltán
- Lutz (7/5): Gutes Preisleistungsverhältniss - Tolle Lage schön ruhig und freundliche Besitzer. Die nähe zum fast menschenleeren Strand war toll. Die Cabinas waren sehr simpel, jedoch nicht super einladend um viel zeit darin zu verbringen, was durch die tolle umgebung aber auch nicht nötig ist.
- Doris (10/5): - Das Frühstück war wunderbar mit selbstgebackenen Brötchen. Sehr freundlicher Empfang mit Willkommensdrink! Es hat einen wunderschönen Garten rund um das Bungalow mit Vögeln und Affen.
Es hat einen langen wilden Strand, an dem man wunderschön spazieren kann. Cahuita ist ruhig und verschlafen- sehr angenehm.
Das Essen im Restaurant bananas war ebenfalls sehr gut!
- marc (10/5): - Super cuisine
- Daniela (9/5): Una estadía maravillosa - La tranquilidad y amabilidad de anfitriones, la cocina equipada, el jardín y que hay el restaurante Banano. Nada.
- Oksana (8/5): -
- Stefanie (10/5): - Wunderschöner Garten mit großer Artenvielfalt. Wir haben direkt vor der Tür Faultiere, Gürteltiere, Agutis, Pfeilgiftfrösche, Kolibris, Glühwürmchen, Schmetterlinge und Echsen gesehen, auch Tukane, Brüllaffen und vieles mehr. Und Ruby Tuesday und die Katze nicht zu vergessen :) Saisonbedingt hatten wir großes Glück und durften dank Samuel auch Babyschildkröten bewundern :). Andrea und Samuel sind tolle und sehr liebenswerte Gastgeber, wir fühlten uns sehr zu Hause und haben ein Tränchen verdrückt, als die Reise zu Ende ging. Wir kommen gerne wieder. Sehr zu empfehlen ist auch das super leckere Essen im Restaurant Bananas, mein Favorit war das Fischcurry, sehr lecker und kreativ angerichtet!!
- Jacinthe (10/5): -
- Poul (9/5): Really nice place to stay for a few days on a budget and eat well. - Breakfast was on order and what I had was really good.
Very quiet beach nearby. Lovely garden, almost jungle-like in the corners, nice. Lots of plants and you could see different animals. Mosquito-net provided,, good! but not many mosquitoes anyways. Terrace with hammock, very enjoyable. Good people running the place. Room was basic and old, which is ok. Don't expect too much. Quite dark and dull. Easy to hear loud room-neighbors.
- Patricia (10/5): Superbe séjour - L'accueil des hôtes. Ils sont très accueillants et bienveillants. Donnent aussi des conseils. La nourriture à leur restaurant est excellente,le menu diversifié . Le curry est juste wow! ça nous évite de retourner au village qui est un peu éloigné des cabanes Algebra. Les petits déjeuners étaient inclus dans notre forfait, c'était parfait et très bon.Chambre basique avec hamac extérieur. Endroit très propre et calme. Quel privilège de se réveiller aux sons des oiseaux et singe hurleur. La playa grande de 6km est fantastique et déserte. Les taxis et autobus sont accessibles pour faire la découverte de la côte. Rien! Tout était parfait.
- Christian (10/5): -
- Gabriela (10/5): - Habitación amplia y hermoso jardín. Un lugar acogedor, muy seguro y con una atención excelente.
- Carsten (10/5): Preiswerter Aufenthalt an den schönsten Stränden der Karibik. - Die Lage war super. Alle waren sehr freundlich. Besonders erwähnenswert ist, die Gerichte im Restaurant waren sehr lecker. Nichts.
- Fatima (10/5): - La chaleur de l'accueil et l'endroit est juste incroyable vous verrez des oiseaux vous entendrez les singes hurleurs des plantes de toute sorte et cerise sur le gâteau elle cuisine divinement bien même le pain est fait maison !! Rien j'étais triste de partir
- juan manuel (9/5): Excelente Energía - La atención de las personas que nos recibieron fue muy buena y el lugar se encontraba muy limpio y ordenado. También me gusta que tenían áreas verdes y estaban muy lindas. El lugar es bastante accesible ya que es todo de una planta, solo el baño tiene una grada grande y en mi caso por la silla de ruedas se me dificultaba utilizarlo.
- June (9/5): -
- Jochen (10/5): - Alles da, woces sein soll (z.B. Steckdosen) Ventlatoren etwas laut
- Stephan (10/5): Wildlife, fruit drinks, and great food - Tucane und andere Vögel, Frösche, Faultiere, Brüllaffen, alles im Umkreis von 400m gesehen beim "Vorbeigehen", sehr coole Lage, und super freundliche Gastgeber, sehr gutes authentisches Caribbean style Essen, hier wird mit Sorgfalt "händisch" gekocht, tolle Fruchtdrinks, gemütlicher Restaurantbereich mit offener Küche; geräumige Cabinas (mit Fliegennetzen über Betten, aber wir hatten praktisch keine Mosquitos im Aug...) Wir waren nur 2 Nächte, nächstes mal 3 oder 4; die ganze Gegend ist sehr interessant und viel Natur bzw. auch "Reggae" wer will,.gibt viel zu entdecken
- Stephane (10/5): Un super endroit pour passer un très bon moment à Cahuita - Le calme, le style des logements et l’accueil de Samuel. Très bon dîner au restaurant.
- allan (10/5): RECOMENDADO AL 100% MUY AGRADABLE SIN DUDA VOLVEREMOS - muy buena ubicacion, cerca de supermercados, gasolinera y cajero
- Cristine (10/5): Loved being able to walk and see the release of baby sea turtles making their first trip to the sea - Location was great.
Accommodations quite lovely!
Hosts were amazing!
I did not partake in the breakfast so I can't respond to that. Very hot night and the two fans didn't seem to be enough for us Californians.
- Marcel (9/5): -
- Castro Varela (10/5): - Desde que llegamos nos encantó el lugar. Samuel y su madre son los anfitriones maravillosos. Muy recomendable!
- Catherine (9/5): Un lieu authentique et des hôtes exceptionnels - Nous avons été très bien accueillis par Andrea et Samuel qui nous a conseillés sur les activités à faire dans le secteur de Cahuita.
La cuisine du restaurant est excellente et le cadre est splendide. La cabine est un peu vieillissante mais il y a tout le nécessaire et c'est un très bon rapport qualité - prix.
- Fiorella Meza (9/5): amazing and pleasant stay in Cahuita - super friendly and kind staff! very good restaurant too! thank you so much!
- Marcello (10/5): - Si buscas estar inverso en la naturaleza propia de Cahuila, este lugar es lo mejor.
Andrés y Samuel son encantadores, y te ayudarán en aquello que necesites. Sin duda si repitiera volvería a Cabinas Álgebra. Si te coincide el tiempo de lluvias, lavar ropa es un problema xq no seca
- Fran (10/5): Hosts were extremely welcoming. Kitchen was well stocked for cooking. The on site restaurant, Bananas, served excellent - Very quiet, pleasant surroundings. I could hear the surf from our cabin. Nice deck to sit on and enjoy the surroundings. The access road.
- Mckenzie (10/5): Great option for staying near Cahuita - Great location and helpful staff.
- Karen (10/5): Exceptional - Fabulous Costa Rican style open air cabins, surrounded by lush jungle foliage. Within walking distance of the beach. The restaurant is open air as well. Great service, very friendly & helpful owners & staff. The food was fabulous, all cooked fresh by the staff, with many menu options available. I highly recommend this as a planned stop if you want to experience the Costa Rican lifestyle! As an American, I was suprised to see that there was only one temperature of water. It's whatever temperature comes out of the faucet, depending on the outside temperature. It was completely workable for our stay, just something I didn't realize we would encounter.
- Harshal (10/5): Excellent start to our Costa Rica holiday - Great location with excellent onsite restaurant and above all, the hospitality from Andrea and Samuel - they’re both genuinely nice and welcoming folks. We had a great stay here and the grounds are stunning with wildlife and birds visiting.
- Julia (10/5): Wonderful! - Super hosts who make you feel at home, excellent meals, cosy special restaurant, great peaceful garden with lots of animals and hammocks in front of cabinas. Muchas gracias y todo lo mejor!
- Myra (10/5): - We love this place.
- Gunnar (10/5): Wonderful hospitality - Wonderful hospitality in the perfect location. Quiet, peaceful setting in walking distance to Playa Grande that one has to oneself. Great menu at the onsite restaurant. A car is of advantage. Highly recommended.
- Merrilee (10/5): Exceptional - Beautiful gardens active with birds and animals, including a sloth. The nearby beach was nearly deserted, but for the nesting Leatherback turtles, it seemed ideal. The restaurant served gourmet food. The menu was varied. The Curry to die for!
- Werner (8/5): Very good - For this price it is a perfect place to stay. Hosts are outstanding friendly, the location is amazing with a lush garden and close to a really nice beach.
If a place still (in 2025) has the original (now fairly dirty) posters of how to handle covid on the door of the room, it tells you a lot about the eye for detail...
- Lamia (9/5): Superb - Andrea and Samuel will welcome you and take care of your stay with kindness and a smile. Delicious breakfast.
Amazing location surrounded by pure jungle. Close to the sea, 10 min walk to the beach.
Great value for money!
- Nadine (10/5): - Nous avons passé un excellent séjour. Le logement était spacieux, très confortable et très bien équipé. L'accueil a été exceptionnel. Nous avons eu toutes les informations nécessaires pour organiser notre séjour. Un restaurant est disponible sur place, avec une cuisine préparée avec soin. Tous les plats sont délicieux.
Nous reviendrons sans hésitation.
- Cbrody (10/5): A perfect base for exploring the area, with an incredibly warm welcome - 100m from Playa Grande and with a lovely 3km walk to Cahuita National Park past the famous Reggae Bar, the hosts were incredibly warm and welcoming to me. Meals and accommodation exceeded expectations, and I feel I've made good friends in the short time that I was there. That I only had three days to enjoy the abundance of nature, the beaches, the food and drink, and the great company.
- Tomáš (6/5): Pleasant - Perfect staff. Accommodation is very old school. We had "only" one cockroach in our room.
- Karen (9/5): The owners were very nice. - Beautiful location and setting: restaurant on premises.
- Shardae (9/5): Superb -
- David (10/5): - A little bit of paradise conveniently close to the national park. The owner and her son were wonderful. Very welcoming and a great hosts. Excellent home cooked food and no need to go elsewhere.
We felt very much at home
- Jose (8/5): - Muy bien y muy tranquilo, sería perfecto si hubiese aire acondicionado
- Saha (9/5): They made it possible for me to love, enjoy and connect with Costa Rica. Definitely going back. - Absolutely went out of their way to meet my needs. Great attention to details. Wonderful people with a big heart. Nothing I can think of
- Marshall (9/5): Superb -
- Shelly (10/5): - Very helpful, nice family owed business. Helpful to let us know what’s in the area. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and enjoyed the kindness offered throughout our stay.
- Gonzalo (10/5): Exceptional - I'm definitely coming back
- Kateřina (10/5): Exceptional -
- Inge (8/5): Very good - Beautiful garden. We saw green macaws and different toekans early in the morning.
Food in restaurant is excellent.
Good bed and pillows.
Spacious.
Quiet location.
Friendly helpful hosts.
Good price. Kitchen: Everything was greasy and dirty. No hot water in the kitchen that explains a lot ofcourse.
- Mimi (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ran (8/5): Very good - Very nice place with nice owners.
The location was perfect for me - 3 k"m from the city center but in a beautiful place in nature near one of the beaches . It's a good place to explore nature, especially at night .
They have also a good restaurant with good prices. Wifi was very bad during my staying . Sometimes it didn't work at all .
Also the bathroom nèed some fixing .
- Alain (10/5): - good
- Etienne (10/5): Hidden heaven near Cahuita - Everything. Especially the lovely staff. When we arrived they took the time to tell us everything we should know about the area (transportation, water, etc...). We ate a few times in the restaurant and the food was delicious.
- Clementine (7/5): Good -
- Jaana (10/5): Perfect spot to relax - Wonderful hosts, very comfortable cabina and a beautiful garden.
- Daniel (9/5): Superb -
- Christian (10/5): All needed and nice owners - Huge cabins with kitchen - and all necessary -, big table, two double beds with docel, warm shower, confortable varanda in the middle of nature and near the beach. The owners were just so friendly and helpful, really very nice and warm persons. The restaurant is also beautiful and the food delicious, fresh and tasty for dinner and breakfast. We are gonna come back in the future.
- Anonymous (10/5): Unforgettable - I had an absolutely wonderful time staying here. The hosts Andrea and Samuel put so much into this place to make it special. Favourite bits-
- Lovely hosts and staff who are happy to help with anything
- Sitting in the hammock watching the wealth of wildlife go by
- Big cabin with very comfy bed
- The fish curry at their onsite restaurant
- Great location in the heart of nature. I particularly loved the beautiful Playa Grande which is 5 mins walk away
- Their dog Ruby :) Nothing
- Tomas (8/5): Great place in a beautiful garden. - Very nice host, made us a welcome smoothie and was very helpful.
Very big room with wardrobes and fully equipped kitchen.
Room cleaning every day.
Sloths hanging in the street and aguti in the garden. Coffee not provided, but that's fine 🙂.
AC would be nice, but there are nets in all windows so we could keep them open.
- Mariana (10/5): Exceptional -
- CAROL (10/5): - Beautiful spot! Quiet area close to the beach. I definitely recommend staying here. The restaurant has delicious food.
- Thomas (10/5): Exceptional -
- Adreanna (10/5): Exceptional - Beautiful garden and surrounding jungle. Very close to beach. Staff were exceptional, made us feel at home. Food was the best we had in Costa Rica.
- Thomas (10/5): Sweet place for a people who seek a quiet place next to the beach - The Cabinas are in a big garden with a lot of wild animals walking by every now and then. It's far enough away from the restaurant, so you won't hear a thing.
Staff is very nice and helpful. WiFi is poor
- Rowan (9/5): Superb - Incredibly friendly and welcoming hosts. We really liked the accommodation and the wildlife in the garden. Nothing
- Anonymous (7/5): comfortable place to sleep - It was in a convenient location close to the beach. I felt the cost was rather high as cabins could use updating.
- William (10/5): We love it here! - This was our second stay at Cabinas Algebra, returning after 16 months. I was pleasantly surprised to see the water pressure in the shower was improved. Which, after our first stay, was my only complaint. Now I have no complaints. This property is excellent value. A beautiful paradise in nature, nearby to the beach. The mother and son owners take excellent care of their guests and the on-site restaurant is really good. Highly recommended! We will be back! All good!
- David (10/5): Cozy spot by the beach - Room was clean. Location was close enough to everything, but not so close as to have heavy traffic. Hosts were above and beyond amazing. Breakfast was made fresh and tasty. My only issue was how hot it could get. The fan helped a lot, but if you're a traveler who needs air conditioning, steer clear.
- Jan (10/5): Definitely one our stop stays in Costa Rica. - set in a beautiful garden in the jungle with the beach just over the road. It was quiet, very clean a great deck, great onsite restaurant and fabulous staff. You see birds and animals just when you’re sitting on you deck. that we didn’t book for longer
